Paradise Beach
Welcome to Playa Paraíso, an ideal holiday resort with a good climate and crystal clear waters. It is located on the coast of the municipality of Adeje and is considered one of the most important tourist places on the whole island. Playa las Américas has made an effort to develop as a tourist resort, so it offers all the necessary services for the holidaymaker.

Airport
The closest airport to Playa Paraiso is Reina Sofia Airport. A large international airport that receives visitors from over 150 countries. Throughout the year there is a high passenger traffic. The busiest times are weekends and the winter season, so the airport has been transformed to accommodate the high demand. Buses, taxis and rental cars are available in front of the airport.
Whale and dolphin watching
The coast of Tenerife is one of the best places for whale and dolphin watching all year round. We invite you to book a whale and dolphin watching boat trip in Tenerife. This is one of the most popular activities in Playa Paraíso among tourists.
The most common species in these waters is the bottlenose dolphin, which usually swim a short distance from the coast so they are the easiest to see. Other dolphins that also inhabit these waters are the Atlantic spotted dolphin, rough-toothed dolphin and common dolphin, but they are more seasonal and less common so it will be more difficult to spot them depending on the time of year you visit. You may also see pilot whales, which can reach up to 5 metres in length. They are also known as pilot whales and are easier to see.
Private boat trips
Private boat trips in Tenerife allow you and your friends and family to enjoy a different kind of day out on the ocean. You will enjoy the sea and the sun in an exclusive atmosphere.
